A wagon is pulled at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal.
Answer:
The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
Potential Energy (U) is the energy of a body located at a certain height (h) above the ground and is calculated as follows:
U = m × g × h
U: Potential Energy in Joules (J)
m: mass in kg
g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²
h: height in m
Equivalences
1 kg = 1000 g
1 ft = 0.3048 m
1 N = 1 (kg×m)/s²
1 J = N × m
Known data




Problem development
ΔU: Potential energy change
ΔU = U₂ - U₁
U₂ - U₁ = mₓgₓh₂ - mₓgₓh₁
U₂ - U₁ = mₓg(h₂ - h₁)

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J
Answer:
time spent = 0.2276
Explanation:
given data
distance = 135 mi
usual speed = 65 mph
today speed = 73 mph
solution
we get here time that is express as
time =
...................1
usual time =
= 2.0769 h
today time =
= 1.8493 h
so we get here time spent as
time spent = 2.0769 h - 1.8493 h
time spent = 0.2276
